I'm looking for some dark, futuristic industrial goth or metal. Anything that is 'cyberpunk' themed or about futuristic societies(post-apocalyptic, totalitarian, etc.) Could maybe be something like 'industrial nu-metal' if there is such a thing. Anything reminiscent of William Gibson's novels. Here's a pretty good example of what I'm looking for:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTGVA-YaJ_oLike that only more cyberpunk themed lyrics.

maybe Sybreed? Their first album "Slave Design" is sth you could possibly enjoy. Later they went into a bit too polished sound, at least for me. However - here's a song to check out:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_lHskJw7PE

i just recommended this band to someone looking for futuristic metal, may even have been you, but i'm not sure. i'd call this band sci-fi death metal, with a sprinkling of industrial: Umbah

the song is called Dr. Geiger, and it sounds like the memoirs of a scientist gone mad. lyrically i think it fits the bill, and the music (though guitar-driven) sounds very futuristic. the vocal delivery is truly unique, lots of distortion but a has a cool, stylistic-narrative feel to it.

Ok, so I'm liking Sybreed and Left Spine Down the best, not too big on Fear Factory though. They just never quite nailed the atmosphere for me. I haven't listened to Mars On Earth yet, but I'll get to it. There's still something missing in the recs thus far, though, I'm not quite sure what it is though.Thank you all for helping out.

It's not dark, industrial or gothic, but 'NM 156' by Queensrÿche, perhaps?

The music is prog, and probably too upbeat to be very 'cyberpunk', but the lyrics certainly are dystopian, (post-)apocalyptic, futuristic and totalitarian, and they involve intrusive cybernetic wetwiring, identity crisis, opposition between juxtaposed human and machine elements - it's all there.

Ensoph comes to mind, musical-wise.Also perhaps mid era ... And Oceans?An atypical rec, but the psytrance band The Synthetic Dream Foundation may also be of interestAlso I was listening to Dol Kruug today and it's quite good. Death metal though instead of gothic also gets nothing lyrical-wise, but still cyberpunk musical-wise

T3chn0ph0b1a considers their music to be "Dancefi-Horror," and that description works well enough. They're a pretty cool aggrotech/black metal hybrid, and while I'm not a huge fan of high-pitched screams, it's still very well done.

HuG was always one of the better bands to switch from primarily electronics-driven industrial to a guitar-driven sound, and Uber Alles is their most identifiable album. It's a really surreal album that takes place in a futuristic World War II, and consists primarily of death-metal riffs played under Wagnerian-sounding synths.

You mentioned industrial nu metal, so I'm gonna rec these guys, even though they're pretty upbeat and not goth. Builder's of the Future isn't their best album, and it's certainly the least metal album on this list - it's more electronic rock than anything - but it's one of the most cyberpunk albums I can think of.

I don't understand how gothic in sound can be associated with anything related to cyberpunk, but I'll post some of the same I always post when people as for Cyberpunk-ish Metal...

First of all -- Neurotech.Like Sybreed, a must when it comes to futuristic/Cyberpunk related stuff.All his releases sound different, so have a look around. I'll post some suggestions. All his stuff can be downloaded for free on Bandcamp.https://neurotech.bandcamp.com/album/stigma

Decode the Design.They're working on their debut album set to release soon, but they already have an EP out for free. They refer to their music as "Cityscape Metal", but it very much fits in with the "Cyber/Futuristic" vibe.Favorite track: Chaos Lanes and Future to Fragments.https://decodethedesign.bandcamp.com/

Assimilate. New band from Norway, currently working on their debut, and personal affiliates of mine. Check 'em out. EP is free.The vocal melodies could be better, but that's on the fault of their singer, who is gone from the band now. https://assimilateband.bandcamp.com/album/ep

MERA. New band project by youtube-guitarist LiamENGL. The EP is instrumental, but the upcoming album will have vocals.https://mera.bandcamp.com/
